The largest open lake in Western Australia’s southwest at 13km in length, 6.5km wide and may very well be the reason the “Dumbleyung” town name exists - thought to be derived from the Aboriginal word ‘Dambeling’ meaning large lake or sea. Currently the lake is a series of large shallow pools which is a sight to see. When the lake is full after large weather events, some activities include skiing, boating, paddle boarding and kayaking.
